Slow Living in a Tea-House Bungalow

A Single-Story Embrace of Warm Wood

段差のない、のどかな茶屋の暮らし。

Nodoka means "tranquil" or "leisurely" — and this single-story bungalow lives up to its name. Designed in the Kyoto Chaya (tea house) style, every surface is warm honey-toned wood, every corner invites you to slow down. With no stairs to climb, it offers effortless comfort for anyone seeking a gentle stay.

The Higashiyama Chaya Pair

Two Couples, Two Bungalows, One Address

Nodoka-An sits right next to Shizuka-An. Book both for two couples traveling together — private bedrooms at night, shared adventures by day. Each bungalow is single-story with no stairs.
